I have been subscribed since 2018 and listening since, uh… 2021? Finally finished all the episodes so I feel able to actually offer a review that is not months behind the times. This is the only podcast I ever actually have listened to, and it’s great when NPR isn’t talking about interesting things. Science and cryptids and amusing portmanteaux are all fun topics for listening and learning and Wyatt and Jake do an excellent job with them. Wyatt and I have terrifyingly similar senses of humor so while in the car I sometimes finish the joke he’s setting up before he gets there on the recording.

So I only downloaded this app again to say how great this podcast is! Jake and Wyatt have a great rapport and I love how they tie science into stories of the supernatural and strange. I have gotten deep into podcasts since the pandemic began and honestly was having a difficult time of finding something with a good balance that I enjoyed and I was thrilled to come across this, thank you guys for your content and sharing your perspectives! :D

#1000% Cool Fantastic show, seriously give a few episodes a listen. Two friends, who get easily scared, talk about creepy crawlies, ghosts, ETs and more, then try to explain what might have happened to give people those experiences. Over the course of the show they add in a few recurring segments that are super fun. You also get to see the friendship these two have which is so fun. If you are looking for a spooky show that doesn’t take themselves to seriously and doesn’t put down the experiences people have give this a listen.
